Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page 

My dad died suddenly 25 years ago. During his life he worked hard raising money for the Calvert Trust.Shortly after his death I did a 100 length swim at Marl Pits pool, Rossendale and raised over £2500 for them. The money was spent on making a pony trekking path through the woods. I have decided to repeat the swim so would be really pleased if you could help me raise as much as possible for the Calvert Trust as a fitting tribute to my dad.

I will be swimming at Marl Pits pool on Tuesday 21st April at 7pm

About the charity

The Lake District Calvert Trust provides residential outdoor activity courses for people of all ages with physical, sensory, learning, behavioural and/or mental disabilities. Its mission is to challenge disability through outdoor adventure. Pioneering equipment adaptations, and intensive, instructor-led activity programmes (that include climbing, abseiling, canoeing, sailing, horse/trap driving, archery, orienteering and paragliding), provide an environment whose aims are to teach, challenge, motivate, engender confidence in ability, promote independence, and foster integration. All instructors are highly trained and specialist qualified, and the facilities are specially adapted and fully accessible to all. The Lake District Calvert Trust provides a unique and life-changing experience for those with disabilities, who are encouraged to believe that it’s what you CAN do that counts.
